Rebecca Run for Spinal Muscular Atrophy
Saturday July 8, 2017
at Fairy Lake in Newmarket, ON

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!
 
The 16th anniversary of the Rebecca Run for SMA was an overwhelming success on many fronts.
 
We had more than 450 participants in the: 5k, 3k and kids' fun run all cross the finish line. There were 15 teams in total, with Gavin’s Groupies being our largest team, with 32 members strong.
 
Our volunteer team of 75 individuals and families gave their time, energy and enthusiasm to ensure that everyone had a very special and memorable day. 
 
With the collective efforts and commitment of our participants, donors and valued sponsors, more than $90,000 was raised for Families of SMA Canada. This brings our total dollars raised to more than $2.7 million since we started the run in 2001.

We look forward to seeing you next year on Saturday July 7, 2018 for the 17th anniversary of the Rebecca Run for SMA at Fairy Lake in Newmarket. Registration for the 2018 will open in November.
 
There is still no cure for SMA. We are getting closer but we are not there yet. We couldn't fund our efforts to eradicate this disease with out your help.
 
Thank you once again for supporting us in our quest to find a cure for SMA!
